Famous quotes containing the word moods:
“The poet is a man who lives at last by watching his moods. An old poet comes at last to watch his moods as narrowly as a cat does a mouse.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
“There are moods in which we court suffering, in the hope that here, at least, we shall find reality, sharp peaks and edges of truth. But it turns out to be scene-painting and counterfeit. The only thing grief has taught me, is to know how shallow it is.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882)
“If a child is feeling disappointed, angry, or afraid about something, you can be sympathetic and understanding. But you dont need to get into your childs shoes and become disappointed, angry, or afraid yourself. Parents help by standing by their children, not by taking over their childrens moods and feelings.”
—Saf Lerman (20th century)
